U.S.'s Toughest Immigration Law Is Signed in Arizona

Breaking: U.S.'s Toughest Immigration Law Is Signed in Arizona 23 Apr 2010 Gov. Jan Brewer (R) of Arizona signed the toughest illegal immigration law in the country on Friday, aimed at identifying, prosecuting and deporting illegal immigrants. The law, which opponents and critics alike said was the broadest and strictest immigration measure in the country in generations, would make the failure to carry immigration documents a crime. It would also give the police broad power to detain anyone suspected of being in the country illegally.

Simply put its the sighn of our times we are in . Desparation on the state, however a wrong road to follow that can only lead to hate. Why for the love of god did the state go after the people instead of the employers??? greed thats why. A way for states now to chip away at the bill of rights we are supposed to have.Hopefully Obama will fix it before too much violence breaks out. Considering we stole the lands from the mexican indians anyway, its a raceist attitude they took and they deserve the trouble.

Someone ought to investigate Jan Brewer - there's a wild rumor going around that she's an illegal immigrant from Britain. Wonder if she has her immigration papers on her at all times. What about US citizens who were born here? We don't carry immigration papers (usually).... That law is unconstitutional and should be used to feed the people who passed it, preferably in large, undisgestible chunks.

If you look at the big picture, you find corporations lining their pockets.

We've seen coporations that have done, in the past, business in S. American that find it more profitable doing business in other countries such as India and China and out sourcing. And so, many jobs have been taken away from our neighboring countries to the south.

As a result, we have our neighboring countries trying to enter the "Promised Land," which is nothing more than a corporate sweatshop at a lesser extent and unemployment and underemployment increasing. It's not a wonder that we're going to see more signs of corporate grab as we exit highways and people that hold the signs that read: "Will Work for Food."
